Anyone got a good way to get rid of these hydroids?

So I guess there are no surefire ways to get rid of these guys. thanks anyway

yes that is exactly what they are! I did google them, but found no easy way to eliminate them. What are limpets? where can I get them? and are they reef safe? I've also found that a rare nudibranch maybe is out there just hard to find anyone have any idea?

Any suggestions to get rid of them?

This stuff came on a rock with green star polyps as one little strand and I thought nothing of it and now it is everywhere. If anyone knows what it is and hopefully how to get rid of it I would appreciate any and all thoughts and advice. I can not pull it off the rocks because of the root...

Just looking for advice on which tang would best go along with my hippo. The tank is 110 gallon reef tank with around 130 lbs live rock, is this large enough for the sailfin red sea? I've heard mixed reviews on both for health (Powder Brown) and size (Sailfin) reasons. Also is it true that the...

It also needs to be reef safe. Thanks

Just curious if anyone has any suggestions on a fish to complement my hippo tang, maybe a pygmy angel or foxface? Any other tangs get along with the hippo? The tank is 110 gallons. Also would tomato clowns get along with percula clowns? Thanks for any advice

If there is anybody interested in making me an offer on a Hamilton 72 inch MH/VHO light setup let me know. The light fixture is black with the plexiglass sheild. It consists of 3 175 watt MH bulbs and 2 72 inch VHO bulbs. The bulbs all work, but may need to be replaced. They have around 5-6...

I am planning on getting a couple new corals tommorrow, probably a bubble and a colt. When placing in tank, how do the secure themselves. Do I have to secure them or do they attach themselves? I want the bubble on a slightly graded rock, so do I need to glue it down? Thanks

Ok thanks for the examples, but how long should the tank be up and running before adding them?

Well my 110 gallon is up and running and stable, the algae is finally under control. I have fish in and they are all doing well, as well as all invertabrates. All levels are good and I am curious how long til I can start adding some corals. It has been up since the beginning of August (around 3...

I am about 3 weeks into my cycle, and there is brown algae everywhere. I realize that this is normal, but is there anything to so aside from cleaning the glass every day? Water parameters are: AMON: 1.0 NO2:0 NO3:0 Temp:80 SG:1.022 pH:8.0 I have cut the lights back to around 6 hours on the metal...

Do MH lights create a smell, or is that just mine? When I open the basement door and I can smell it upstairs. Is this normal or are they burning up? They are 400 watts apeice so could that be it? It kinda smells like a tanning salon. I put a fan blowing across the ballast and now they stay on...

I just bought a light hood from an ---- store psl (pet supply liquidators) and am having a few issues. The lights consist of 2- 400 watt MH's, and 2 48 inch VHO's. The problem is that the 2 MH bulbs will run great for around 2 hours, then turn off, and then an hour or two later it will come back...

Anyone have any information on the advantages/disadvantages of the double ended HQI versus regular one sided mogul MH. I am considering a unit with 2-250 watt Double ended HQI MH's, and 4 t5 bulbs, would this be good enough to reach the bottom of the tank. My tank is 30 inches deep, 48 inches...

That is true i was not thinking about the brace. Thanks

Tell me if this would work, 1-400 watt mh, 4-65 watt pc with the mh centered would this get enough light to the bottom corners? tank again is 48 inches long, 18 inches deep and 30 inches tall. Thanks

Thanks for the input, do you need more than mh? I see most detups include vho or pc for the actinic. Also Can anyone give me some advice on the best light or light combination? My tank is 48X18X30 inches, 30 ince=hes is the height. Just looking to get the best idea of what is ideal and also...
